About the Pattern
Tysjöarna Sweater is a thick and warm sweater, perfect to wear outside on your adventures in the forest, mountains or lakes. Tysjöarna is a nature reserve in Jämtland where me and my family loves to spend time in the fall. The Tysjöarna pattern is inspired by the fall in this magical place, and was originally a sock pattern, which is available in my Ravelry store.

Tysjöarna Sweater has a high collar which you may choose to fold down and sew or simply keep high, the collar is in a two colored rib, this makes the collar extra compact, to help keeping you extra warm from cold winds. The collar is followed by short rows in the neck, and a round yoke with a stranded pattern. The body and sleeves are finished with the same two colored rib as the collar.
